Ebook: Enabling 5G communication systems to support vertical industries

"Recent technological advances have resulted in the creation of vertical industries that provide niche services that were non-existent a decade ago. These industries are highly dependent on the availability and reliability of data between multiple locations. Unlike previous generations of wireless communication systems, the 5G system will entirely be data driven, accounting for several criteria such as latency, resilience, connection density and coverage area, alongside the traditional criteria of throughput and energy consumption. This book explores recent advances in theory and practice of 5G communication systems that solve problems in specific industrial sectors such as smart transportation, smart manufacturing, connected health, smart agriculture, smart grid, environmental monitoring and disaster management. The aim is to highlight how 5G communication system can accommodate the unique frameworks and quality of service requirements of vertical industries for efficient, low latency and cost-effective service delivery"--  Read more...
